Cut and preparation of fabrics of Pinks of IACUSA We cut the pinks when the flowers are buds and/or in their perfection after the dew dried except function (usually the afternoon). Methods of drying Drying of air while stopping Collect the length-driven back pinks (4-6), roll up the tape of arubber around the stems and stop with back in a place hot, dry, dark and well-ventilated during 1 to 2 weeks with space between the flowers. Electric Dehydrator The commercial dehydrators of food placed at the dry temperature of lowerst from 95 to 100 degrees of the pinks very well. We as many place fresh pinks on cupboards without contact. Carry out during 8 to 24 hours according to the size of flower. The flowers will narrow about 50% and the color will change more than silica gel, but the colors sharp and the no silica gel dust to be withdrawn are the advantages. To dry with dessicants Silica gel Right : The silica gel is not toxic, but avoids the inhalation of him because it can irritate the sines. The colors which come outside close to the original once dry out of silica are white, pink-clearly, yellows, lavender, and blue (not-pinks). More sunk colors, such as the red, pink-dark, and orange, tend to prove even darker. Silica will hold and support the shape of the flowers.
